In Tamil Nadu, as it seems impossible to garner votes by praising Rama, is BJP attempting to gain votes by praising M.G. Ramachandran? This question was posed by former MP K.C. Palanisamy.
A BJP public meeting took place near Palladam. Speaking at the event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “The language that embraces me the most is Tamil. From Tamil Nadu, a stronghold has been established. In Varanasi, the Kashi Tamil Sangam was established.
The people of Tamil Nadu are pure-hearted, enlightened. We provide free rice to three crore people in Tamil Nadu. BJP government provides three quotas of funds to Tamil Nadu. Even when there is no governance in Tamil Nadu, BJP keeps Tamil Nadu in its heart.
During the 10-year tenure in the central government, DMK did nothing for Tamil Nadu. Those who mocked Tamil Nadu for many years are now anxious seeing the growth of BJP. Today, when I come to Tamil Nadu, I remember MGR. MGR still remains in memory due to the help he provided to the poor.
MGR did not rule as a family, only after him, Jayalalitha gave good governance to Tamil Nadu,” said PM Modi, praising MGR and Jayalalitha. Former MP K.C. Palanisamy criticized this situation and posted it on his ex’s website.
He questioned, “Is BJP trying to gain votes by praising M.G. Ramachandran as it seems impossible to garner votes by praising Rama in Tamil Nadu?”
